Using big data to improve healthcare

At the Centre for Big Data Research in Health (CBDRH), we develop capability for real-world evidence. This is evidence regarding the use and potential benefits and risks of a medical product or intervention derived from analysis of real-world data. It includes administrative claims data, electronic health records and product and disease registries.

Our relevant capabilities include:

  • Design of observational studies using real-world data including administrative claims data, electronic health records and disease registries.
  • Methods for causal inference using real-world data.
  • Propensity score methods.
